Can you feel the excitement and pressure building? It's going to continue as we push towards March. This is the last week of January, which means February -- and the hectic conclusion of the regular season is about to start. And that means the college basketball season will start taking its final turn towards the NCAA Tournament.

Here's your weekly chance to get in on the conversation.

Tuesday at 11 a.m., Brendan Prunty, The Star-Ledger's college basketball writer, will be live on NJ.com to answer all of your college hoops questions. Whether it's how Rutgers will snap out of its three-game slide, what Seton Hall is doing to fight out of the Big East basement or the happenings around the country -- ask away.

As always anything -- from recruiting news to the latest in conference realignment to what's happening across the state's six other Division 1 programs -- is on the table.

We've had great turnouts for our first two chats of the season and are looking for the same on Tuesday. See you there.

HEY HOOP-HEADS!
We're closing in on 50 days until Selection Sunday and the start of the NCAA Tournament, which is the perfect time to join in on The Star-Ledger's coverage of college basketball on NJ.com.
